Simulation Research on Consistency of Multi-Agent Systems with Different Topologies and Time-Delay

With the characteristics of autonomy, coordination, reactivity, adaptability, and robustness, multi-agent systems have been paid more and more attention and widely used in various fields. In multi-agent systems, the consensus convergence processes are highly dependent on the information interaction among agents through the network, and the connectivity of the network topology and the time delay would affect the performance of system consensus convergence. In order to investigate the effect of topology and time delay on the consistency of multi-agent systems, the simulation studies are implemented and the effects of topology and the time-delay on the consensus convergence are analysed, some valuable conclusions are obtained, which provides a reference for the research of consistency in multi-agent systems.
